There are a lot of nutritional myths, which negatively impact our life
Not all fats are created equal. Some fats can actually help promote good
health, while others increase the risk for heart disease. The key is to replace
bad fats (saturated fats and trans fats) with good fats (monounsaturated

If you skip a meal, your body will think that you are in starvation mode and
therefore slow down the metabolism to compensate. You then tend to
overeat at the next meal. Often, skipping a meal and then eating too much
at the next one means that you have a higher total caloric intake than if you
just ate more frequently throughout the day. A better approach is to eat
smaller frequent healthy meals and snacks to keep your blood sugar
balanced.
